Chapter 4 Adjustments and Settings for Recording — Setting the time data
Time code at the variable frame rate (VFR)
f In the 24PN mode, recording is performed at 24 frames, and output is performed at 30 frames matched to 2:3 pull-down video.
f When [FRAME RATE] (shooting frame rate) is set to 24P, the advance speed of the time code for recording and output matches real time and does
not match real time in modes other than 24P. (Example: In the 60P mode, the advance speed for recording becomes 60/24x.)
f In this instance, operation is xed to recording run, and the time code value to output at the start of recording is matched to the recording time code.
f The same applies at other than 30P shooting in the 30PN mode.

Externally locking the time code
The internal time code generator of the camera can be locked to an external generator. In addition, the time code generator of an external device can be
locked to the internal time code generator of the camera.
Example of connections for external locking
As shown in the gure, connect both the reference video signal and the reference time code.

NOTE
t As a reference video signal, a composite video signal can also be
input in addition to an HD Y reference signal.
t When the system mode is set to 480i, 576i (SD) and 720P, input
the composite video signal.
t If the system mode is 720P, the video signal generator lock is
activated when the HD-Y signal is input, however , the time code
may shift by one eld.
t When the generator lock input reference signal is disrupted,
recording cannot be performed normally, and [TEMPORARY
PAUSE IRREGULAR FRM SIG] ashes red on the viewnder
screen and the clip is divided. The continuity of the time code is not
guaranteed. Recording resumes when the signal returns to normal.
However, recording does not resume in interval recording, one-
shot recording, and loop recording.
External lock operation procedure
To externally lock the time code, follow the steps below.
1
Set the [TC IN/OUT SEL] item on the setting menu [IN/OUT
SEL] screen to [TC IN].
For details, refer to “Setting menu basic operations” (page 118).
2
Set the counter display to [TC] by the <COUNTER> button.
3
Set the SmartUI screen to the [SET01:TC/UB] screen by the
<SETUP> button.
4
Set the [TC_MD] item to [F-RUN].
5
Press the <HOME> button to display the [HOME] screen of
SmartUI.
A reference time code and reference video signal that are in a phase
relationship (that conforms to time code specications) are supplied to
the <TC IN/OUT> and <GENLOCK IN> terminals.
f Now the built-in time code generator is locked with the reference
time code.
